What Inspector James says: Grain men
in st. Paul and Minneapolis are complain
ing that a large amount OF the wheat now
| coming into the elevators at primary
points is OF very inferior quality, IL great
deal of it being not only damp but also
full OF foul seeds, which makes IL very high
percentage OF 'dockage." This is more OF
less true OF every season, but the present
harvest seems to be an unusual one in re-
spect to the proportion of damp wheat.
When there is as much dirt in wheat "a hap
pens this season, it would be a good plan
for farmers to club together and clean their
wheat before putting it into the local Gle
vator. Another thing the farmers ought
to do is to hold back their damp wheat
and let it dry awhile; then, when they
/ ship it in, they will get much better grade
! for it.
